6 Product Overview

VERZuGSERKENNuNG/VERZuGSKORREKTuR

The straightening systems of the Orthopac family from Mahlo normally represent automatic roller straightening systems where scanning system and straightening rollers are combined. However, the scanning bridge is also available as stand-alone device and a manual straightening system without scanning bridge.

Numerous variants and options are available to meet the require-ments of the textile industry. From the pure distortion detection system to large, reinforced straightening machines for wide and heavy products such as carpet or combination system.

Straightening machine and process control combined

All systems of the Orthopac family can be fitted with a modular process control system thus combining the functionality of the Ortho-pac straightening systems and the Optipac VMC process control system in a single device.

+ Orthopac FMC-15 – Distortion detectionThe Orthopac FMC automatic straightener is the heart and core of the Orthopac. The device consists of an optical scanning system and electronic control for distortion correction.

It is used primarily to detect and log residual distortions in the exit end of a system, e.g. with the stenter. Thread density can be determined at the same time. It can also be connected to external straightening machines then serving them as control unit.

+ Orthopac MFRC-15 – Fine straightenerThis model represents a compact fine-straightening system for the correction of residual distortions. The special strength of the Orthopac MFRC is the extremely high straightening accuracy at relatively small distortions. The compact straightening unit is equipped with a skew and bow roller as standard. This arrangement allows for very fine adjustment of the straightening effect while permitting small device dimensions. Available with hydraulic or electrical straightening roller adjustment.

Variants:MMR Straightener: Manual straightening machine without

optical scanning system and control

+ Orthopac RVMC-15 – Classical straightening machineThe Orthopac RVMC is the universally employable straightening system from Mahlo for the correction of web distortions for nearly all applica-tions. Available with hydraulic or electrical straightening roller adjust-ment. The modular construction allows the system to be configured to meet the demands of changing conditions and requirements.

Variants:RMM Straightener: Manual straightening machine without

optical scanning system and control

+ Orthopac XRVMC-12 – Precision straightening machineControl and regulate at the same time: The Orthopac XRVMC is the first straightening system worldwide to offer this unique combi-nation. This completely new concept was developed for processing high-value textiles with the greatest distortion dynamics. The inde-pendently controllable straightening rollers guarantee the greatest possible control of the straightening process and easily hold even the tightest residual skew tolerances.

+ Orthopac GRVMC-12 – Reinforced straightening machineThe heavy duty version. High demands due to large product widths (e.g. carpet) or dimensionally stable textiles with defined skew settings (e.g. denim) require a more solid configuration. The frame, bearings and rollers are designed for high loads. Available with up to 5500 mm working width.

8 Product Overview

+ Orthopac CRVMC-12 – Specialist for carpets and technical textilesThe Orthopac CRVMC is especially designed for high mechanical load. Thanks to reinforced components, it is ideal for processing very heavyweight and wide materials. The arc of contact of the straighte-ning rollers thereby depends on the desired straightening effect. With products without skews and bows, the straightening rollers are not enveloped unnecessarily. When the straightening rollers engage with the product they always contact the product across the entire width of the web, thanks to the innovative roller positioning drive.

Variants:CRMM Straightener: Manual straightening machine without

optical scanning system and control

Combination systems

+ Straightening combinations – Linking of straightening systemsConfronted with the most stringent demands with respect to any residual distortion, in many cases it is also necessary to develop very special straightening concepts. Mahlo has responded to this trend and developed individual solutions. This becomes necessary since in many cases straightening before the stenter is not sufficient. Distortion, especially bow, can still occur in the stenter itself. This is why the weft configuration is sensed by scanning after the stenter pull-off roller. Distortion is actively controlled by means of the speed controller of the pull-off roller and/or with the combined skew/bow roller of the Orthopac MFRC straightener.

Example: Combination system for knits: Orthopac RVMC (1) straightening and process control system with product tension control and spreading roller combined with an Orthopac MFRC (2) straightener on the stenter delivery side.

9Product Overview

Pin wheel straightening systems

+ Orthomax RFMB-12 – Fusion of pin wheel and roller straightening systemReliable, quick distortion correction also for asymmetric web dis-tortion. The fusion of pin wheel and roller straightening technology perfectly combines the advantages of both technologies and provides amazing straightening results. An infinitely variable unclipping roller minimises residual bow and edge distortions. The intelligent drive station with special voltage control for smallest product distortion activates or deactivates automatically (e.g. in case of blockages). A bypass function is available at the push of a button for products that cannot be straightened with the pin wheel.

+ Orthofact RMB-12 – Classic pin wheel straightening machineAsymmetrical distortions (wavy, S-shaped, etc.) in textiles have always represented a huge challenge in the textile industry. A special straightening approach is needed particularly when the straightening process does not take place in combination with a stenter (e.g. before decatizers, digital printing systems, etc.). To restore the warp and weft threads to their original state, the Orthofact RMB generates a defined lateral tension using freewheeling, inclined pin wheels. This cross-tension stretches the warp threads. The resultant force controls the freewheeling pin wheels, since the weft threads will always seek out the shortest path from selvedge to selvedge. Distortion, no matter whether wavy or S-shaped, will be corrected.

Pattern detection

+ Patcontrol PCS-15 – Pattern detection, Distortion correction,Repeat controlThe leading pattern detection system using camera technology.Repetition of printed, woven or tufted patterns are evaluatedaccording to certain algorithms and used for measuring, correctingand evaluating distortions and repeats. Depending on the application area of the Patcontrol PCS, Mahlo configures the system individually. The system uses one or two cameras – depending on the width of the product to be processed – to automatically detect the position of the pattern and continuously determine the pattern repeat, measures the product width, and – together with a weft straightener – aligns the product distortion based on the print pattern.

Optipac VMC-15 – Modular process control system

The Orthopac VMC is a modular process control system for textile refinement. It optimises drying or fixing processes as well as the processes all about the stenter. The system measures, logs and controls critical process parameters such as dwell time, thread density, residual moisture, basis weight, exhaust air moisture, etc. across the entire working width. This increases quality while saving resources and energy. The modular design of the system allows its flexible adaptation to all applications. Both, standard requirements and highly customised demands are thus met.

The system can also be integrated into an Orthopac straightening system. It thereby combines the functionality of a weft straightener with that of a process control system in one compact device.

Textile manufacturers and textile outfi tters are fi ghting with increasing production and energy costs, declining profi t margins, shorter production times as well as greater requirements on quality and fl exibility. Cost-effi cient and quality-focused textile outfi tting thus becomes increasingly important. Sustained production and the trend to higher-quality, technically sophisticated textiles also play a major role. The effi ciency of the production plants can be drastically increased through suitable measuring and control technology from Mahlo. This means, at the same time, increased productivity with usually improved reproducible quality, optimised raw materials usage and work effort accompanied by clearly improved plant utilisation.

11Product Overview

+ Dwell time / Fixing time – Permaset VMTInfrared pyrometer. To determine the dwell time or fixing time for a desired product temperature, the surface temperature of the product is measured without contact at several locations in the dryer using high-temperature resistant infrared pyrometers. Up 64 sensors are possible. The dryer speed is automatically adapted.

+ Thread density / Course density – Famacont PMC Optoelectronic sensor / camera sensor. The Famacont PMC determines the thread density by means of a non-contacting, optoelectronic or imaging process. With the optoelectronic process individual threads or courses pass the sensor and are projected onto the photocell using a precision optical lens. The resulting frequency is proportional to the thread count. A high-resolution camera is used with the imaging process. The image is analysed with using suitable software. Both, the thread count in weft and warp direction can be determined here with maximum precision.

+ Basis weight – Gravimat FMITransmission of beta rays. The weight monitoring and control system measures the weight continuously, without contact, destruction-free and on moving product. The measurement is based on the attenua-tion of rays from a radioactive isotope through the substrate located in the measuring gap. This attenuation in intensity is an indication of the weight of the product.

+ Residual moisture – Textometer RMSMeasuring electrical conductivity. Moisture retention (residual moisture) is an important criterion in terms of later finishing, finished product scrap and energy optimizing. Electrodes determine the residual moisture at the outlet of the dryer utilising electrical conductivity measurement. The dryer speed is automatically adjusted until the desired degree of drying has been reached. Many different electrodes are available for a wide variety of applications.

+ Exhaust air moisture – Ecomat AML Measurement of steam. Much unused energy is wasted through the exhaust air during drying processes without appropriate control. The Ecomat AML optimises the heating energy required by monitoring charging of the exhaust air with water steam and controls this factor through the fan speed or the exhaust air vent control.

+ Product width – Wilot WMR Reflexion of infrared light. Automatic width measurement on a running product web. IR LEDs used in reflective mode continuously and precisely determine the product width. The sensor module only needs to be attached on one side of the product. The compact design allows it to be installed even in the tightest mounting spaces. Retrofitting is possible virtually anywhere.

16 Product Overview

Sensors:

+ Gravimat DFI – Basis weight / ThicknessTransmission of beta rays. The weight monitoring and control system measures the weight continuously, without contact, destruction-free and on moving product. The measurement is based on the attenuation of rays from a radioactive isotope through the substrate located in the measuring gap. This attenuation in intensity is an indication of the weight of the product.The Gravimat uses a target weight to reduce the range of different m2 weights and thereby ensure a more consistent product.

+ Gravimat FMX – Basis weight / ThicknessBackscattering of X-rays. The weight monitoring and control system measures the weight continuously, without contact, destruction-free and on moving product. The X-ray radiation from an X-ray tube is directed towards the product, from which it is partially scattered back. The greatest part of the radiation passes through the product and is absorbed by a beam dump or steel facing roller installed there. This backscattered portion is an indication of the weight of the product.

+ Gravimat FMX-T – Basis weight / ThicknessTransmission of X-rays <5 kV. The Gravimat FMX-T permits the contactless and traversing measurement of basis weight / thick-ness of the running product webs over the entire product width. It measures thin film, nonwovens and other fabric with high resoluti-on, measuring accuracy and absence of flaws.

+ Infrascope NIR – Basis weight / MoistureAbsorption of infrared light. The Infrascope NIR monitors the absorp-tion of infrared energy of all components on or in the web in the near infrared range. Measuring over the entire spectrum range and applying multivariate data analysis tools produces highly accurate calibration results from information in redundant spectra. The Infrascope NIR is available in transmission mode.
